Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Do you see any compelling investments in these asset managers that have experienced large drawdowns? Currently, I am only holding BN at a 5.3% core holding, big fan of their investment strategy, allocation, themes and Bruce Flatt. Out of the other names listed, they all have strong returns over the long term. Would you be a buyer of any of these currently or should I just stick with BN over the long term? How would you rank them now? What is the max allocation to BN one should have for the long term? I know you are very comfortable with this name. Thanks!

Q: A note to JR re. GSY and PRL,
Thank you for the comment. I commented about the ethics of GSY last week and I regretted it afterward. It was one of those notes that is better to reflect upon that send. Your points are good and valid.

Q: With goeasy’s stock under intense pressure, I’m looking at the ownership structure: David Ingram and Don Johnson control more than a fifth of the company and have been through multiple credit cycles as long-term holders. Given Don Johnson’s reputation for financial acumen and his deep roots in the industry, is it fair to interpret their lack of selling as a signal that the underlying book value remains intact? Or do you believe the LendCare charge-offs represent a structural shift that even veteran insider conviction can't offset?

Q: Not a question but rather an observation: please don’t knock down legal regulated businesses that lend to people that can’t get loans like people with assets. I can get an interest rate that the poor people can only dream about.
Otherwise they would have to borrow from loan sharks in the underground economy.

I get enormous benefits from credit cards points but that is really on the backs of less well to do cc users.

One very well known head of state always was treated like a VIP by most banks. Was that justified? Look where that got us.

Q: For investors already active in US names, would you endorse continuing to hold GLXY into and after the TSX de-listing? Or, for example, do you feel there are more compelling names in the US crypto space to consider for a portfolio?
